Hazel took her first steps into the Dreg Heap, a twisted realm where remnants of countless worlds had piled upon one another, crumbling and collapsing into an endless abyss. The ground was a shifting mass of broken architecture—pieces of cathedrals, forgotten towers, and decayed ruins that seemed fused together by some dark, chaotic force. Each step was a descent into ruin, the air heavy with ash and whispers of worlds long past.
As she moved forward, Hazel felt the oppressive weight of this place, as though the memories of each fallen world lingered in the dust. Shadows flickered among the broken stones, and strange, spectral figures drifted aimlessly, remnants of those who once lived in these forgotten places. They watched her with hollow eyes, their faces frozen in expressions of sorrow and despair, as if haunted by the loss of their own worlds.
Navigating the Dreg Heap was no simple task. The ground was unstable, with entire sections giving way to reveal an endless drop below. She moved carefully, her eyes scanning each fractured path as she leapt from one crumbling ledge to the next. At times, the very ground seemed to shift under her, as though resisting her presence.
Soon, Hazel encountered creatures born from this chaos—corrupted knights, their armor warped and twisted, who lunged at her with fury. They bore no banners or emblems, their loyalties long forgotten. Her staff glowed as she struck them down, each spell casting a faint green light across the ruins. She met their relentless attacks with equal resolve, each encounter leaving behind only echoes in the ash-filled air.
The deeper she ventured, the stranger and more twisted the surroundings became. Among the ruins, she found pieces of once-grand monuments buried in the dirt, monuments whose inscriptions were now meaningless fragments, swallowed by the Dreg Heap. She paused before one such remnant—a statue of a woman, her features worn smooth by time, her eyes forever turned upward in silent prayer. Hazel felt a pang of sorrow, knowing that whatever world this statue had once belonged to, its story was now lost to the dark abyss.
At the heart of the Dreg Heap, Hazel faced a monstrous creature, a knight who had grown into a terrifying, almost grotesque form, a symbol of the ruin and corruption that consumed this place. His weapon crashed down like thunder, shattering the ground beneath her feet, yet she held firm. She danced around his heavy strikes, her magic flashing with each movement, until, with a final surge of power, she struck him down, the twisted knight falling to dust as his form crumbled into the ash.
When all was quiet, Hazel stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down at the endless layers of fallen worlds below. The Dreg Heap was a monument to forgotten realms, a graveyard for time itself. Hazel took a deep breath, her resolve steady as she turned her back on the chaos, her path now leading forward, away from this place of decay. She had passed through the Dreg Heap, her spirit unbroken, and her journey pressed ever onward into the unknown.
